Does anyone know when they will reopen the bathrooms at the reservoir? They were both closed many months ago due to vandalism of the men's bathroom.

[Highland Park] FW: New Citizen Alert

Hello Highland Park, I just wanted to pass along some information that was posted on the Citizen Observer by our Burglary Unit. Remember you access the Citizen Observer at www.citizenobserver.com <http://www.citizenobserver.com/> Cmdr. RaShall M. Brackney, Commander Zone Five Station Penn Circle West and Ansley Pittsburgh, Pa. 15206 (412) 665-3605 -----Original Message----- From: CitizenObserver [mailto:no-reply@citizenobserver.com] Sent: Friday, October 19, 2007 4:06 PM To: Brackney, Rashall Subject: New Citizen Alert Pittsburgh Bureau of Police spacer<http://www.citizenobserver.com/cov6/images/spacer.gif> police logo<http://www.citizenobserver.com/cov6/images/lealogo/pittsburghbp.gif > Citizen Alert Investigations Branch - Burglary Squad Tips from the Burglary Squad to better secure your Homes As simple as this sounds, make sure windows and doors are locked when away. HOWEVER, windows are easily broken and doors are easily jimmied or kicked in SO... Consider a burglar alarm system (which are not as expensive as you would think) which immediately sounds a loud alarm when a break-in happens. The signal is then dispatched to the police. Burglars tend to run as soon as the alarm sounds. Do not discard cartons with new electronics etc... out for the garbage until the morning of pick up. Hide laptops, IPods etc... when out. A good tip is to leave an old laptop case on the floor opened up with some interface wires laying on a table or desk. This may make the burglar think the laptop is out of the house. Burglars frequently case neighborhoods and become very familiar with them. Note strangers prowling the neighborhood and call police to report it, no matter how insignificant it looks. The response of uniformed officers is the best weapon against catching a burglar. Patrol Officers love to catch burglars. Consider calling a locksmith to access your home for security hardware. Keep accurate records of your valuables, including serial numbers of electronics etc... Consider motion activated night lights. WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU COME HOME AND DISCOVER YOUR HOUSE HAS BEEN BROKEN INTO Immediately leave the house and call police, the burglar(s) could still be in the house. Do not disturb anything, you may destroy evidence. Note any suspicious people, vehicles etc... in the area, especially in alleys and side streets, which may speed away upon your arrival home. After your home is secured by police, file an initial burglary report. After the police leave, carefully check the entire house for other property missing and areas disturbed. Report this to detectives who will conduct a follow-up interview and possibly order additional fingerprinting. Expect a call from the Mobile Crime Unit who will set an appointment to fingerprint as soon as possible.

[Highland Park] Basketball or indoor soccer for kids?
by Julie Gammill Gibson 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

Hi Neighbors! Does anyone know of any recreation basketball or indoor soccer or other sports programs for little ones in the winter in Pittsburgh? My son is 5 1/2 and very energetic. We're new to the area, and we learned too late this year about the Dynamo and Morningside soccer leagues. So right now he is doing tumbling at Gymkhana instead. But he really wants to play a sport, and I really want to preserve my sanity this winter when he won't be able to release his energy running around in the yard. If I get responses, I'll forward the recommendations on to the group. Thank you! Julie Gammill Gibson King Ave. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

[Highland Park] babysitter/parenting network
by Jennifer Brackney 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

good morning! i am hoping to find one or two people that are in our neighborhood (or close proximity) that could be potential babysitters for us on occasion in the evening or weekend for a few hours at a time. i know that there have been postings here and there by people who wish to provide such services. we have a one-year-old and thereby the person would need to be able to lift/carry 25 pounds. if you are interested in being on our list of possible babysitters, or if you know of someone who may be interested, please forward along information. i posted a message at the beginning of the summer regarding the possibility of starting a parenting network for the HP neighborhood. now that i am beginning to get settled into my life - new city, new job, new everything - it is something that i am seriously considering initiating for our community. please send me a quick email again if you would be interested in assisting with this undertaking. i have found the HP community to be a wonderful, welcoming place and look forward to uniting the parents here to become a resource for one another. look forward to hearing from you. sincerely, jennifer brackney

Hi Neighbors, We need to have our furnace serviced. Could we have some recommendations? We have radiators, so we don't need our ducts serviced/cleaned, just the furnace. Thanks, Michelle & Kevin
